As the form of the English language changed, even the spelling of literate people's names evolved. Crocombe has been recorded under many different variations, including Crocombe, Crokum, Crocumb, Crocumbe, Crewcumb, Crewcumbe and many more.

Migration of the Crocombe family to the New World and Oceana

For many English families, the political and religious disarray that shrouded England made the far away New World an attractive prospect. On cramped disease-ridden ships, thousands migrated to those British colonies that would eventually become Canada and the United States. Those hardy settlers that survived the journey often went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Crocombe or a variant listed above: a number of settlers who arrived in the New World by the 19th century.
